LINKEX: Backlink checker is broken... - GoFuckYourself.com

Iron Fist · 12-24-2007, 03:47 AM

I don't believe in security in obscurity and I have already notified linkex.dk of this issue which just started hitting my network.

I have a recip trade... looks like they are A-B-C trading with me... I check the recip page to see if they have a link
to my site and sure enough, I CAN'T SEE ONE ANYWHERE ON THE PAGE. So I look at HTML source and sure enough, this is what
I see..

<script language=JavaScript>
<a href="http://www.site.com/" title="My Site">My Site</a>
</script>

This needs to be addressed somehow.... of course, you can't run your sites on autopilot and expect to be linked - visibly check your backlinks....

Enjoy.

Hopefully the backlink checker in LinkEX is rewritten so it detects nested HTML code, but you need to double check your backlinks visibily at least every week and verify.

hi,
thanks a lot for pointing this out! I'll make
sure to check for these kind of cheating methods
in the next release.
I'll have some free time here in the holidays, so
I can work on a new release.
Thanks

Sucks that I figured this out Christmas Eve... I guess cheaters never take holidays off.
